FLUSHING, N.Y., April 27, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- CenterLight Healthcare's Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) was named the winner of a Bronze Stevie® Award in the Achievement in Small-Budget Marketing category in the 24th Annual American Business Awards® today.
The American Business Awards are the U.S.A.'s premier business awards program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. are eligible to submit nominations – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small.
Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word meaning "crowned," the awards will be presented to winners at a gala ceremony at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York on Tuesday, June 9. .
More than 3,600 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of categories, including Startup of the Year, Executive of the Year, Best New Product or Service of the Year, Marketing Campaign of the Year, Thought Leader of the Year, and App of the Year, among others. CenterLight Healthcare PACE was nominated in the Achievement in Small-Budget Marketing category for its "Keeping Up with the PACE of Aging: We Can Help" campaign.
CenterLight believes that PACE is the missing piece of the healthcare puzzle – offering adults 55+ comprehensive, coordinated care that helps them continue living safely and independently at home. Yet despite its benefits, PACE remains underrecognized among older adults and their families. That's the gap this winning campaign is designed to close.
"In an increasingly crowded healthcare landscape, our challenge as a not-for-profit is elevating awareness of the meaningful impact CenterLight PACE has on the lives of those we serve. Our team is deeply committed to our mission, and the most powerful testament to our work comes from our participants, who share how PACE has transformed, and even saved, their lives. Their voices inspire our marketing efforts, guiding us to tell authentic, heartfelt stories that reflect the true difference we make every day," says David Silva, Chief Administrative Officer at CenterLight Health System.
Tara Buonocore-Rut, President and Chief Executive Officer at CenterLight, adds: "I am very proud of our marketing team. This award proves the belief, passion and pride they have for what we do and their tireless efforts to spread the word about CenterLight PACE."
More than 250 professionals worldwide participated in the judging process to select this year's Stevie Award winners.
"Organizations across the United States continue to set a high standard for innovation and performance," said Stevie Awards President Maggie Miller. "The breadth and quality of nominations submitted to the 2026 American Business Awards reflect a dynamic and competitive business environment, where organizations are finding new ways to drive growth, deliver value, and make an impact. We congratulate all of this year's Stevie Award winners and look forward to celebrating their accomplishments at our June 9 awards ceremony in New York."
